Max Payne 1


To me you can't really have a good ending without a good story and this criteria basically throws half the games on the Guinness list right out the window.


Exactly my opinion. Most games I don't really immerse myself into, but games like WarCraft 3 and Max Payne were so well written and fun that I really was emotionally connected.

I remember, after finishing Max Payne 1, being depressed for like days, thinking about those haunting HAUNTING nightmare sequences. My god, I highly doubt the third one will live up to previous two.

The entire ending portion of MGS3.

Nuff said. Incredible story with an incredible ending.

For me this has to be the scene in Knights of the old republic where you find out you are Revan hands down. The thing which makes a cinematic good is the charecters and story, not technical flashy brilliance.

Huge spoilers for anyone intending to play this game. Such an excellent game. Tragic ending =(

I thought Guiness didn't do this crappy poll stuff and call it a "record".

Do they do one for food as well? Maybe a record of world's best food?

Yes, some end game credits are what come to my mind when speaking of cutscenes. That is just how good this game was.

Totally agree with the FFIX posts, fucking best game ever made. The cutscenes/music are just unreal.

Completely agree, from the final boss fight which is beautifully done (not counting Ocelot), to the end of the final cinematic, this one is perfect.

MGS 3 has the best ending cutscene bar none imo.
Shadow of colossus is also really really good.

The fact that Call of Duty: Black Ops is on that list automatically makes it void.

Probably the closest to a true cinematic cutscene the SNES has to offer. Just one of many great moments in FF6, even though its only relation to the plot was getting the airship.

All the cutscenes in FF IX are absolute masterpiece, even eleven years after its debut.


I have tears in my eyes when I watch this.

I like this intro. I'm pretty sure there are better intros that I have seen, but I can't think of any at the moment.

As far as ending goes, I finished Darksiders recently and I like the ending. There was something epic about it, although it wasn't some flashy battle scene or something like that.
